FIRST AID MEASURES For advice, contact a Poisons Information Centre (e.g. phone Australia 131 126; New Zealand 0800 764 766) or a doctor. Page 1 of 7
Inhalation: Remove victim from area of exposure - avoid becoming a casualty. Remove contaminated clothing and loosen remaining clothing. Allow patient to assume most comfortable position and keep warm. Keep at rest until fully recovered. If patient finds breathing difficult and develops a bluish discolouration of the skin (which suggests a lack of oxygen in the blood - cyanosis), ensure airways are clear of any obstruction and have a qualified person give oxygen through a face mask. Apply artificial respiration if patient is not breathing. Seek immediate medical advice. Skin Contact: If skin or hair contact occurs, immediately remove any contaminated clothing and wash skin and hair thoroughly with running water. If swelling, redness, blistering or irritation occurs seek medical assistance. Eye Contact: If in eyes, wash out immediately with water. In all cases of eye contamination it is a sensible precaution to seek medical advice. Ingestion: If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Give a glass of water. Get to a doctor or hospital quickly. Medical attention and special treatment: Treat symptomatically. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Hazards from combustion products: Flammable liquid. On burning will emit toxic fumes. Precautions for fire fighters and special protective equipment: Keep containers cool with water spray. Fire fighters to wear self-contained breathing apparatus and suitable protective clothing if risk of exposure to vapour or products of combustion. Suitable Extinguishing Media: Alcohol resistant foam is the preferred firefighting medium but, if it is not available, normal protein foam can be used. Hazchem Code: 3Y 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Emergency procedures: If contamination of sewers or waterways has occurred advise local emergency services. Methods and materials for containment and clean up: SMALL SPILLS: Collect in a container for disposal via special chemical waste collection. LARGE SPILLS: Shut off all possible sources of ignition. Wear protective equipment to prevent skin and eye contact. Avoid breathing in vapours. Work up wind or increase ventilation. Contain - prevent run off into drains and waterways. Use absorbent (soil, sand or other inert material). Collect and seal in properly labelled containers or drums for disposal. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Conditions for safe storage: Store in a well ventilated area away from foodstuffs, oxidising agents and sources of heat or ignition. Keep containers closed when not in use - check regularly for leaks. Page 2 of 7
Precautions for safe handling: Keep out of reach of children. Avoid skin and eye contact and breathing in vapour. All potential sources of ignition (open flames, pilot lights, furnaces, spark producing switches and electrical equipment etc) must be eliminated both in and near the work area. Do NOT smoke. Vapour may travel a considerable distance to source of ignition and flash back. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Occupational Exposure Limits: No value assigned for this specific material by the National Occupational Health and Safety Commission. However, Exposure Standard(s) for constituent(s): Mineral turpentine: 8hr TWA = 480 mg/m 3 White spirits: 8hr TWA = 790 mg/m 3 Xylene (o-, m-, p- isomers): 8hr TWA = 350 mg/m 3 (80 ppm), 15 min STEL = 655 mg/m 3 (150 ppm) As published by the National Occupational Health and Safety Commission. No Exposure Standards assigned to other constituents. TWA - The time-weighted average airborne concentration over an eight-hour working day, for a five-day working week over an entire working life. STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit) - the average airborne concentration over a 15 minute period which should not be exceeded at any time during a normal eight hour work day. According to current knowledge this concentration should neither impair the health of, nor cause undue discomfort to, nearly all workers. These Exposure Standards are guides to be used in the control of occupational health hazards. All atmospheric contamination should be kept to as low a level as is workable. These exposure standards should not be used as fine dividing lines between safe and dangerous concentrations of chemicals. They are not a measure of relative toxicity. Engineering controls: Provide adequate ventilation. If using indoors, keep windows and doors open during use. Keep containers closed when not in use. Personal Protective Equipment: The selection of PPE is dependant on a detailed risk assessment. The risk assessment should consider the work situation, the physical form of the chemical, the handling methods, and environmental factors. Personal Protection: G - OVERALLS, SAFETY SHOES, SAFETY GLASSES, GLOVES, RESPIRATOR. Page 3 of 7
MANUFACTURE, PACKAGING AND TRANSPORT: Wear overalls, safety glasses and impervious gloves. Use with adequate ventilation. If inhalation risk exists wear organic vapour/particulate respirator meeting the requirements of AS/NZS 1715 and AS/NZS1716. Always wash hands before smoking, eating, drinking or using the toilet. Wash contaminated clothing and other protective equipment before storage or re-use. FOR CONSUMER USE: Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Use with adequate ventilation. If risk of inhalation exists, wear organic vapour/particulate respirator meeting the requirements of AS/NZS 1715 and AS/NZS 1716. 9.

TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION No adverse health effects expected if the product is handled in accordance with this Safety Data Sheet and the product label. Symptoms or effects that may arise if the product is mishandled and overexposure occurs are: Page 4 of 7
Ingestion: Eye contact: Skin contact: Inhalation: Swallowing can result in nausea, vomiting and central nervous system depression. If the victim is showing signs of central system depression (like those of drunkeness) there is greater likelihood of the patient breathing in vomit and causing damage to the lungs. May be an eye irritant. Contact with skin will result in irritation. Will have a degreasing action on the skin. Repeated or prolonged skin contact may lead to irritant contact dermatitis. Material may be irritant to the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract (airways). Breathing in vapour can result in headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, and possible nausea. Breathing in high concentrations can produce central nervous system depression, which can lead to loss of co-ordination, impaired judgement and if exposure is prolonged, unconsciousness. Long Term Effects: No information available for the product. Toxicological Data: No LD50 data available for the product. 12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION Ecotoxicity Avoid contaminating waterways. 13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS Disposal methods: For large quantities: Refer to Waste Management Authority. Advise flammable nature. Dispose of material through a licensed waste contractor. Normally suitable for incineration by an approved agent. For small quantities: Do not pour leftover paint down the drain. Unwanted paint should be brushed out on newspaper, allowed to dry and then disposed of via domestic waste collection. Empty paint containers should be left open in a well ventilated area to dry out. When dry recycle the container via steel can recycling programs. Disposal of empty paint containers via domestic recycling programs may differ between local authorities. Check with your local council first. 14.
